چکیده

We provide several new algorithmic results for the secluded path problem, specifically approximation and optimality results for the static algorithm of [3, 5], and an extension (h-Memory) of it based on de Bruijn graphs, when applied to bounded degree graphs and some other special graph classes which can model wireless communication and line-of-sight settings. Our primary result is that h-Memory is a PTAS for degree-∆ unweighted, undirected graphs, providing a ⌈√ ∆+1 h+1 ⌉ -approximation in time O(hn logn); in particular, 0-Memory (i.e., static) provides a √ ∆+ 1-approximation (i.e., = √ ∆+ 1 − 1), tightening the previous analysis of this algorithm, and ∆-Memory is optimal (i.e., = 0), and is faster than the known optimal algorithm for this setting [3]. We also show that 0-Memory and 1-Memory give constant approximations for unit-disk graphs and planar graphs, and that an extension of h-Memory solves many other tessellation graphs. Finally, we prove that the problem is NP-hard on node-weighted graphs of degree 3.

Two optimal algorithms for finding bi-directional shortest path design problem in a block layout

In this paper, Shortest Path Design Problem (SPDP) in which the path is incident to all cells is considered. The bi-directional path is one of the known types of configuration of networks for Automated Guided Vehi-cles (AGV).To solve this problem, two algorithms are developed. For each algorithm an Integer Linear Pro-gramming (ILP) is determined. The objective functions of both algorithms are t...

A New Algorithm for the Discrete Shortest Path Problem in a Network Based on Ideal Fuzzy Sets

A shortest path problem is a practical issue in networks for real-world situations. This paper addresses the fuzzy shortest path (FSP) problem to obtain the best fuzzy path among fuzzy paths sets. For this purpose, a new efficient algorithm is introduced based on a new definition of ideal fuzzy sets (IFSs) in order to determine the fuzzy shortest path. Moreover, this algorithm is developed for ...

ALGORITHMS FOR BIOBJECTIVE SHORTEST PATH PROBLEMS IN FUZZY NETWORKS

We consider biobjective shortest path problems in networks with fuzzy arc lengths. Considering the available studies for single objective shortest path problems in fuzzy networks, using a distance function for comparison of fuzzy numbers, we propose three approaches for solving the biobjective prob- lems. The rst and second approaches are extensions of the labeling method to solve the sing...

Shortest Path Problem with Gamma Probability Distribution Arc Length

We propose a dynamic program to find the shortest path in a network having gamma probability distributions as arc lengths. Two operators of sum and comparison need to be adapted for the proposed dynamic program. Convolution approach is used to sum two gamma probability distributions being employed in the dynamic program.
